True

Explanation:

The Middle East was not a region that was of great interest for the Europeans, though they isn't minded having control over it. The reason why the region was not very attractive was that it lacked in natural resources, as well as being mostly covered by deserts and steppes. This all changed with the discovering of the large oil reserves. The Middle East suddenly turned out to have the largest reserves of the most demanded natural resources, so automatically it made it very attractive for the European countries, as they wanted to have control over this valuable natural resources, both to have it on disposal, and to be able to profit from it.
